Westgate Development LLC and general contractor, Wininger Constuction, Inc., will use READI funding to build out infrastructure (water/sewer) for a 90 single-family paired-patio home development in Greene County. The goal is to sell the homes for under $250,000. Each home in the Westcott neighborhood will be stick built on a site over concrete slab foundation. Partners for the project include Smith Design Group, Bynum Fanyo, Smithville, and Greene County Redevelopment Commission. The development is in close proximity to WestGate@Crane Technology Park where a recent announcement was made about the construction of a microelectronics facility that will add around 550 jobs to the local economy. Westcott will help add to the supply of housing needed to meet the demand of workers moving to the region. READI funding for infrastructure will allow the developer to keep costs of housing low for homeowners. 4 units were completed in October of 2021 as spec homes. Bid packages were sent out in January with openings in mid-Feburary. Infrastructure work will begin in the Spring 2023 and be done by December 2024.
